I can confirm that this bug exists in Karmic's version of arpwatch as well. Steps to reproduce:
1) start arpwatch running (or install it, it's started automatically if you do) 2) disable networking to your PC via the NetworkManager applet and re-enable it 3) check top, arpwatch is now using up 100% CPU in the background and continues to do so until restarted -- arpwatch uses 100% cpu when net disconnects on laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/357462 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
